Series kvm/mm: Allow GUP to respond to non fatal signals | expand

Commit Message

Add one new PFN error type to show when we cannot finish fetching the PFN
due to interruptions.  For example, by receiving a generic signal.

This prepares KVM to be able to respond to SIGUSR1 (for QEMU that's the
SIGIPI) even during e.g. handling an userfaultfd page fault.
